Dear collegues,
Can you please help me understand the following sentence?
Die Sirene ertönt nur im Rezeptbetrieb sobald vom Rezept der Bediener zur Anlage für einen manuellen Eingriff gerufen wird.
As far as I understand, Rezeptbetrieb means "automatic operating mode."
Can it mean this? Or am I totally lost in translation?
The siren sounds as soon as manual intervention is required from the moment the operator received (sth) till its input to the system.
Thank you in advance

the operator of the facility is required by the system
'Rezept' is the system. 'Bediener zur Anlage'is the facility operator.
The whole sentence would read:
The siren only sounds in automatic operating mode when the operator of the facility is required by the system for a manual action.

: This sentence sounds fairly right to me (from the understanding point of view). Although I am not sure about the automatic operating mode and the "only". There are two ways to interpret that.

I agree totally with your point Christina. Of course, it may make a significant difference in context.

Reference information:
it sounds as if Rezeptbetrieb is something similar to a semi-automatic process.
To me this Rezept sounds like a process description of some kind - probably a "how-to-mix-this-makeup" sort of recipe.
And at some point in this recipe, the automator needs to do something (add an ingredient, ...) manually and is therefore called to the machine.
This call is also part of the recipe. The rest before and after this call is done automatically according to the process steps.
(In cooking it would read something like "...then let it steam for a while. As soon as your see this and that happen, you need to add more butter" or whatever.)
Is that understandable?

Okay, I just pointed this out in a comment to jtgoaler's answer. If you are very picky about the German, there are two ways to interpret the "nur":
1. the sirene only sounds when the Rezeptbetrieb is used and the operator needs to do something
2. the sirene sounds in any operation mode when the operator needs to do something.
Doesn't sound like much of a difference?
Well, as I said, you need to be picky.

Note from asker:
Dear Christina, Thank you for your answer? What do you think of jtgaolar"s reply? Sound logical to me. But, it is always better to ask the native German speaker as yourself. But, as you said, I also think rezept means "procedure" here. The more I translate, the more I am getting the gist of what it leads me to, I guess. There are "20 Rezepte". |

I kind of personalises the Rezept.
Oh, well...
But Jutta is right, these versions are far "more German"
Die Sirene ertönt nur im Rezeptbetrieb, sobald der Bediener für einen manuellen Eingriff vom Rezept zur Anlage gerufen wird. (or better even: ... sobald der Bediener vom Rezept zur Anlage gerufen wird, um einen manuellen Eingriff vorzunehmen).
Maybe this helps.
